Sustainable Transportation Bike Sharing Bandung Ecovillage#1 has provided bicycle sharing system that is a service in which bicycles are made available for shared use to individuals on a very short term basis. Automated parking building To reduce ground parking space, Ecovillage will build multi-story concrete structure with an internal
Sustainable Transportation Bus Bandung has developed Mass Rapid Transportation facilities. Bandung Ecovillage program will increase amount of bus in Bandung. Skywalk To increase bike user and walking habit, Ecovillage will provide Skywalk, a steel bridge along Jalan Tamansari-Cihampelas
Sustainable Solid Waste Management Composting Bandung has implemented composting process both in household scale by providing composting bin and region scale by providing composting machines. Biodigester Bandung has built several biodigester. To carry out waste-to-energy program, Ecovillage will increase amount of biodigester system in region scale
Sustainable Solid Waste Management Recycle center Ecovillage will provide Recycle center that recycling plastics, batteries, paper, metal, biomatter, glass, textile, electronic, and composite. Underground collection station To operate more cleaner and greener waste management, Ecovillage will provide underground solid waste collection system Plasma technology Ecovillage will introduce solid waste treatment by using plasma gasification technology. Plasma gasification is a process which converts organic matter into synthetic gas, electricity, and slag using plasma. A plasma torch powered by an electric arc is used to ionize gas and catalyze organic matter into synthetic gas and solid waste (slag).
Integrated Wastewater Treatment Communal septic tank Communal septic tank will be build to treat the sewage from Ecovillage community. The sewage will pass through sewer pipes to the communal septic tank. Sewage conveyor-pipe along river Sewage from house near river that are not serviced by Communal Septic Tank will be serviced by sewage conveyor-pipe system. The sewage will pass through sewer conveyor-pipes to the City Domestic Wastewater Plant.
Integrated Wastewater Treatment Sustainable drainage system Bandung Ecovillage will provide sustainable drainage system such as source control, permeable paving such as pervious concrete, storm water detention, storm water infiltration, and evapo-transpiration (e.g. from a green roof) Public toilet Bandung Ecovillage will provide several Public Toilets. Public toilets are an important amenity for slum-dwellers, the homeless and those working in the informal sector.
Urban farming Urban farming Ecovillage will increase practice of cultivating, processing, and distributing food in a city by Urban Farming Program. Roof garden Ecovillage will introduce roof garden, a garden on the roof of a building/house. Besides the decorative benefit, roof plantings may provide food, temperature control, hydrological benefits, architectural enhancement, habitats or corridors for wildlife, and recreational opportunities. Green street Ecovillage will implement many elements of street design, construction, and operation in favor of
Low Consumption and Renewable Energy Street lighting by LED technology Ecovillage will use street lighting by LED technology. LED street lighting has higher energy efficiency compared to conventional street lighting Street lighting by solar cell technology Ecovillage will also use street lighting by solar cell technology. Photovoltaic (PV) energy supply technology support concerns over global climatic change, local air pollution and resource scarcity.
